My Beloved Super Fierce Wife -
Chapter 611 is kind of interesting.
Chapter 611: 611 is kind of interesting.
Mu Sheng felt the back of his head, sticky, with semi-dried blood on his fingers.
He stood up, his body swayed, and a book fell out from his embrace.
It was the one published by Lin Tang.
Mu Sheng bent down hastily to pick up the book and put it back.
Rising too abruptly, his head spun even more, and he steadied himself against something by his side, rubbing his forehead.
At that moment, several men suddenly appeared at the entrance of the cave.
This group was the same one Mu Sheng had encountered once before at the outskirts of the Shuangshan Brigade.
Fei Maotui was also among them.
Still holding a grudge from the beating, he said coldly, "Awake, are you? You’ve got quite the luck."
The leader glanced at him but did not speak.
Mu Sheng clenched his hand and asked, "Who are you guys, and where is this place?"
Here, he could faintly smell the scent of blood, giving him a very unpleasant feeling.
"Come out first."
The leader left those words and turned to leave the cave.
The other strong men followed close behind.
Mu Sheng bit the soft flesh in his mouth to calm himself down, and with a cold, deathly expression, he followed them out of the cave.
As soon as he exited the cave, the scent of blood grew even stronger.
In the distance stood tall trees, their tops invisible from afar.
Their location seemed to be... deep in the forest.
Mu Sheng narrowed his uncomfortable eyes, retracted his gaze, then noticed a bloody man being dragged by someone into the bushes.
The leader took a deep drag of his cigarette and exhaled leisurely.
Cigarette smoke obscured his eyes, also hiding the maliciousness within them.
"Here, human life is the cheapest thing," he said.
As soon as the man finished speaking, the bloodied man got struck by rocks and rotten wood on the ground and turned his head towards where Mu Sheng was.
Seeing the man’s face, Mu Sheng’s expression remained unchanged, but his pupils suddenly contracted sharply.
That person... wasn’t he missing for a long time? Has he been here all this while?
What in the world is this place?
Though his mind was churning, Mu Sheng’s face revealed nothing.
The leader, who had been watching Mu Sheng with his peripheral vision, noticed that he couldn’t spot even the slightest emotional fluctuation on his face and became twice as interested in him.
This kid is interesting!
"Kid, keep up!"
With that, he walked towards a house not far away.
That house stood out against a backdrop of grass huts, bearing a distinct charm.
Fei Maotui, seeing his big brother treating Mu Sheng so differently, glared at him fiercely.
What’s so good about this kid?
Considering the swelling on his waist from the blow this kid had given him had not gone down for days, still showing purple hues, Fei Maotui’s gaze seemed murderous.
Mu Sheng followed the authoritative man with a somber face, not paying much mind to the wound on his head.
Back then, to get a bite to eat, he had fought with a stray dog, and a chunk of flesh was bitten off his thigh, but that didn’t matter, did it?
Mu Sheng entered the house calmly.
As he walked in, he swept his gaze across the entire house subconsciously.
What he saw was an official’s chair made of Huali wood adorned with a huge tiger skin, which looked imposing.
To the right was a large cabinet with a jar of Malt Extract, a radio, an iron hot water bottle on top of it...
It did not look like a bandit’s hideout, but rather resembled his master’s home.
Mu Sheng had no ripples in his heart, glanced once, and lowered his eyes.
Fei Maotui, irritated by his looks, said unhappily, "What are you looking at? Is my big brother’s house somewhere you can look?"
Mu Sheng gave him a sideways glance, without a trace of expression.
The leader had been watching Mu Sheng all along, his interest growing more and more.
He rebuked the clattering Fei Maotui, "Dafei."
Dafei, meeting the displeased eyes of the big boss, quickly retreated.
He bowed his head and didn’t dare to say another word.
Mu Sheng had been unconscious for two days in a row, feeling utterly empty in his stomach and his legs weak.
He randomly chose a place to sit down and asked the person in charge, "Who are you? Where is this place? What is your purpose?"
The crowd, seeing his disrespectful demeanor, glared at him with the intent to scold.
But seeing that their leader didn’t care, they became mute.
They all couldn’t understand why the leader was so tolerant of this kid, so tolerant that it made them feel sour inside.
The leader, seeing Mu Sheng’s calm demeanor, squinted his fierce eyes slightly.
This is somewhat interesting.
He had someone look into it and heard that this kid was a pitiful orphan whom everyone cursed and anyone could beat. He shouldn’t have been familiar with the ways of the world, so why was he reacting like this?
"You can call me Brother Hu," Yin Chenghu said, his probing gaze resting on Mu Sheng as he spoke indifferently.
"As for where this is? It doesn’t hurt to tell you, we are in the mountains, and the reason for capturing you guys is naturally for mining!"
His voice was as light as a cloud, as if capturing people for hard labor was the most normal thing in the world.
The mountains, mining...
He already knew they were in the mountains, but mining?
"Are you illegally mining?" he asked, frowning.
Yin Chenghu was slightly taken aback, not expecting him to be so blunt.
A trace of a smile crept onto his face, "Illegally mining? That’s an interesting way to put it."
No one had dared to say that to his face before.
He was smiling on the surface, but his eyes were cold as ice.
Mu Sheng, feeling disconnected with no attachments, was not afraid at all.
His expression was indifferent as he looked directly into Yin Chenghu’s eyes, and for a moment, the air itself seemed to freeze.
Time passed unknowingly.
It was so long that no one knew whose stomach embarrassingly growled.
Gurgle gurgle—
A hint of amusement flashed in Yin Chenghu’s eyes as he withdrew his gaze and looked towards Dafei, "Go prepare something to eat."
Dafei didn’t dare to waste words, shooting Mu Sheng a glare before hurrying out of the room to find food.
Mu Sheng also noticed this man’s strange ’tolerance’ towards him, unable to guess what Yin Chenghu wanted to do, so he could only wait and see.

December 18th, Lin Tang’s birthday.
It was a Saturday, but in this era, there wasn’t such a thing as weekends off.
Workers could only rest one day a week, on Sundays.
Fortunately, the fine-spun yarn on Lin Tang’s loom was at a pause, and Old Yang had already left for the Provincial City, having given her leave in advance.
So, today, the birthday girl was the most important.
Lin Tang slept until she woke up naturally.
Dressed anew, she thought about how today was a bit different.
She wore a bright yellow thin sweater with ordinary black trousers underneath and small leather shoes on her feet.
The sweater and trousers were simple in style, but nobody could overlook Ning Xinrou’s fine craftsmanship on some inconspicuous details.
Lin Tang, wearing them, looked even more charming than flowers.
Her entire being seemed shrouded in a gentle glow, beyond description.
"Little Auntie, you look so pretty today!" Lin Fei saw Lin Tang coming out of the room, her eyes lighting up as she rushed forward to hug her legs.
Lin Tang looked down at her, snorting, "You little girl don’t know how to talk, have I ever not been pretty?"
Lin Fei froze for a moment, then quickly switched her words, knowing what was good for her.
"Always pretty, Little Auntie is the most beautiful in the world."
Her voice was soft and sticky, melting the heart of anyone who heard it.
Lin Tang was just teasing her niece, and seeing how clever she was, laughter spilled from her lips.
She bent down to lift Little Feifei, kissing the small adorable, fair and tender face.
"So cute."
Lin Fei covered her face, a blush spreading from her ears to her cheeks.
Muttering, "Oh my, I’m so embarrassed,"
Yet her face revealed a happy smile with all her little white teeth showing.
